Title: Script errors in IE11
Post by: MSRadell on March 10, 2018, 09:57:40 am
Starting about a week ago I began getting script errors when visiting certain Internet sites.  If multiple sites and it doesn't seem to be a pattern.  I'm attaching a screenshot of the error message I get.

I've already tried the Windows Repair Tool and that had no effect on the problem.

I know most people could use a different browser but I have to use Dragon NaturallySpeaking software to control my computer because of her disability.  It's not fully integrated into any of the other browsers so they are useless to me in most cases.

I'm not sure if this will do it if there's a problem with the web site but click on the tools cog top right - Internet options - Advanced and under the Browsing section check the box for Disable a notification about every script error

The two script boxes above that one should already be checked.

Click on OK and restart IE and then try those web sites.

Thanks for the idea but that's something I've already checked, that's obviously something to simple for the problem I'm seeing.

Which antivirus program are you using and have you tried the web sites with it disabled ?

Does Event Viewer or reliability history give more details as to an error code ?

I'm using Norton Security and I have tried turning it off with no success.  Event viewer shows nothing reliability history says the same thing as what I posted earlier.

When you click on tech details in reliability history, does it give any more info - like an error code ?

With Access Denied it would probably end with a 5.

As you said it has only been happening for about a week, see if using your restore points to go back to before it started will resolve.

Interestingly, I've had several of the errors today while reviewing various websites and reliability history doesn't show anything at all?  According to the it I haven't had any problems of any type.

I suppose you will have already reset IE to defaults ?

Have you tried your restore points ?

yes I've reset IE and it had no result.  I don't have a restore point old enough to go before the problem began.  I only save them for the last couple of days.

There are some suggestions in this article although it must be an oldish one as it only mentions IE9, but I would think the they are still valid to try - if you haven't already tried them.
